Went to get a new battery for the lude yesterday and the parts guy asked if I'd seen the prelude in the showroom?!...
Got a few quick snaps, it really is very very tidy.
They took it in part exchange, 41k miles, said it was so mint all they did was valet it and put it out for show - NOT FOR SALE. Though I suspect everything has a price eh... Over to you wurlycorner

I should add that it honestly stood out like a donkey's ding-dong, making the rest of the showroom look pretty bland.
Says a lot I think.

Over here is a Prelude, and over here is a very pointy Civic designed by my five year old.

I can't believe the previous owner traded it in though. I bet they paid him bugger all for it. It looks minty.

I wonder if some old dude snuffed it, and his son/daughter brought it in to get themselves a shiny new shitbox.

I love seeing a Honda show room when they do this, the local one to me has had a MK1 Civic in and a NSX that's just the ones I know of. They completely stand out from the crowd.

99+ cars seem quite rare in that colour. Looks nice

Looks absolutely minty mint
What are they gonna do with it long term then, if not for sale?

Sell it to yoooooouuuuu!
Genuinely, I have no idea. I'm sure it could be bought for the right money, now or in the future.
Would be interested to know what they price it up at, if they do eventually sell.
